TV series influence on sculpting miniatures for Martin's characters

So now that the Game of Thrones show has come out on HBO, I'm wondering if this will somehow affect the sculpts to come out in the future. I really love the miniatures as they are, and enjoy the fact that they are the product of imagination and not limited to by wha...

How about some halfling minis?

How about making a few nice looking halfling minis? Clive Caldwell has a female bard, and Larry Elmore has a Female Halfling rogue. I can't be the onle person looking for a decent halfling mini.

Martin miniatures

Well, to Dark Sword's credit, I disliked 'A Game of Thrones' so much I almost swore off ever buying anything with the name on it. However, of course, DS had made some excellent miniatures and some, with a nice amount of filing off of heralds, make nice miniatures fo...

When are the GRRM "monsters" coming?

With all of the wildings and black brothers you've done, I'm surprised we haven't seen any of the "monsters" of the North. What about a giant, or even better, a giant riding a mammoth? An "other"? An "ice spider"? or maybe some wights (including a white bear!)?
